The district encompasses 53.42 square
miles and is located primarily in northwest Dallas County with a smaller
portion in southeast Denton County. The school district's boundaries are
not the same as municipal boundaries; therefore, Carrollton-Farmers Branch
Independent School District provides instructional services to children who
live in portions of Carrollton, Farmers Branch, Addison, Coppell, Dallas, and
Irving.
The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent
School District's primary objective is providing a child-centered educational
program. The system prides itself on the first-rate quality of its schools.
An integral part of the dynamic, fast-growing Metrocrest, the district provides
classrooms where teachers can teach and children can learn. Community
involvement, parental support, dedicated staff members, and personalized
instruction contribute to making our schools excellent learning environments. A
diversified curriculum is available because the district's officials realize
the importance of tailoring instruction to meet all students' individual needs.
Offerings include Bilingual education, gifted education, fine arts, special
education, English as a Second Language, vocational education, computer
technology, business education, and advanced placement courses. Students may
also participate in a number of co-curricular activities and
athletics.
Because our district values and
appreciates continual professional development, hundreds of opportunities
are available to support any teacher at whatever stage of learning he or she
may be. It is a source of pride to see the value that our teachers place on
lifelong learning.
Lewisville ISD has an enrollment of over
39,000 students this year. Lewisville ISD encompasses 5 High Schools (9-12

Elementary Schools (K-5 grade). The ISD also has a Career Center, a Learning

Bargain Properties >Advice From Real Estate Agents
When buying a home, it is essential to cooperate as closely as possible with your real estate agent. This can be challenging, especially if your agent asks you to do some things that you don't particularly want to do to in order to get you moved into your new home as quickly as possible.
When real estate agents advise you regarding ways to make the transaction work, they are acting as part coach and part business consultant. If you find the house you love and want to "sleep on" the decision for a few days, the agent knows that you run the risk of losing the house. If you are inclined to complicate your offer with clauses that might make the contract unattractive to the sellers, the agent may ask you to consider some modifications. Should you call the week before the closing with an attack of "buyer's remorse", your agent knows the cure. Following your real estate agent's suggestions will increase your chances for a successful move!
